Fage yogurt

2 grains, 1 fruit, 1 fat, 1 protein

As promised, I am sharing the scone recipe I tried today! I found the recipe on the Fage yogurt website, and it was a total hit!

“THIS IS THE BEST SCONE I’VE EVER HAD….PERFECT!” – Sergei (There you have it folks, this recipe is better than the boxed and store bought scones we’ve tried!)

Instead of using cranberries I used dried cherries and golden raisins. On the next batch I added a cup of oats and made oatmeal raisin scones. The combinations are endless so feel free to make your own and share what you tried!

Preheat oven to 400F. Combine first four ingredients in one bowl (dry), and the sugar, yogurt, egg, butter, and zest in a separate bowl (wet). Add the wet mixture to the dry and fold in the dried cherries. Make a circular shape with the dough and cut into 8 pieces. Bake scones with at least an inch of space between them for ~15 minutes.

Welcome

FeedMeColor is your meal plan go to! In February 2014 I was placed on a meal plan. It was stressful, confusing, and I needed help. I created FeedMeColor to create recipes and meal ideas for those who are following a meal exchange program, counting carbs, or need help with meal planning.

Meal plans are followed for a number of reasons including illness and weight management. In this program, you are allowed a daily amount of each food group. For example, breakfast could be: 3 Grains, 3 Proteins, 3 Fruits, 3 Fats, 1 Dairy.

"Meals" are meant to give inspiration on what a colorful, balanced meal looks like. They are based off of my exchange plan but can be easily edited to fit yours!

"Recipes by Group" helps you fill in the gaps in your meal plan. For example, if you are missing 1 protein from your meal, click the protein tab under Recipes by Group.

"Recipes by Carb Count" sorts recipes by the number of grain exchanges it has. I originally created this option for diabetics, but found it is helpful for other readers too.
